In the letter, Mr Wells said everyday household items imported will get more expensive under World Trade Organisation tariffs - some by 30% or more.
The head of Logistics UK, previously known as the Freight Transport Association, and which represents hauliers, warned that restrictions to the number of lorry access permits available to enter the EU could put businesses across the country at risk. "We are urging government to keep pressing for a deal with Brussels, to protect not only our industry but the economy as a whole."
Cabinet Office Minister Michael Gove has acknowledged that leaving the EU without a trade deal would cause "some turbulence".
Actually it's going rise whether it's a deal or a no deal Brexit
Could could always could...they never commit to saying will rise, I wonder why that is the 😂
SOME EVERYDAY GOODS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why is this news?
Food prices have been rising most of the year
Why are these details coming out now? 4.5 years after the stupid referendum Just like the ridiculous story of the delays at passport gates, Remainers KNEW THIS and knew Britain was better off staying in, that’s why we voted REMAIN. Duh. RemainersWereRight BrexitReality
It must be true if you heard it on the bbc 😂
It's time for U.S. & U.K. to give up food luxurie's.
Well it looks like the bbc license can go so we can afford food lol
Could rise lol could go down cheap imports from china
More gloom, doom & scaremongering from the BBC
The big tasty tomatoes from the north of England, the best pork and sausages in Scotland, the delicious fruits and vegetables from the south, thanks for the olive trees and the oil, pure gold of Wales! We will leave the tasteless battered cod and potatoes for the Europeans,Thanks
Could rise? Didnt they already? Cos i defo spend about 30 pounds more for the same stuff as i did last year.
Shit stirring again BBC ffs
Noooo!!! Really!?!? 🥴
Here we go with the scaremongering again, distraction from the real problems.
Drugs like cocaine and hash will be flooding into the UK due to lack of supervision at entry points.
Why wasn't this painted on Boris' bus?
More scaremongering 🤷♂️
They rise every day so what’s new .?
It would rise if the companies raise the price, it wouldn't be because of leaving the eu.
Rabid Remainers BBC, With more fake News.
I'm a trucker and I've been saying this since day 1. With this in mind, I have created a Brexit Box full of supplies to see me through a few months. If it's shit for longer, who knows? I voted remain.
Small price to pay compared to staying in the EU 👍😎
BBCPolitics 'Could' not 'would'. A world of difference. BBC scaremongering yet again. Inflation happens every year - get over yourselves.
And I COULD win the Lottery - and date 10 supermodels.
Surely for imported goods only. I can understand that to a degree. However, Goods made or originating from uk shouldn’t rise. Just using the situation to make money.

BBC brexit propaganda. They were always against it. There's a hell of a lot of our food and goods that come from outside the EU. There won't be any difference on those items. There are PLENTY of other sources to buy from.
ron_mould Not ! Could ! Prices will go sky high due to brexitshambles & Covid19UK & Tax Hikes...all coming our way from a WmGov CorruptToriesOut
The Remainers new this. But the BBC and other MSM kept peddling 'Project Fear'. This is on you.
Everyone voting for Brexit, voted for the biggest lie ever Fact
It's not as this has come as a surprise to anyone, we were all told during Brexit. What did people think would happen? We have no industry and can not grow enough food to support the country.
Insult to Injury One day after years & years just one of your reporters will find something good to say about our economy. Such a depressing broadcaster and we have to pay for your services. 🥵
Or... could not?
But not toilet paper.
Scaremongering again
Or that Welsh muppet...
Here go the BBC with any anti Brexit stuff they can lay their hands on basing everything on the word ‘could’ Lineker will be getting his oar in soon no doubt. Cost of everyday goods ‘might not’ rise. If I chose different lottery numbers I could be a multimillionaire!
There the BBC go again with ‘COULD’ rise! 🙄
What a surprise! Something else this Govt under BorisJohnson isn’t telling us.
If the EU said 2+2=4 you Brexit idiots would say it's 5
🥱🥱🥱 still on the anti Brexit train BBC it’s getting boring now 🥱🥱🥱
*will
Key word is 'could'
They will also reduce due to global trade I'll take Australian wine for example any day over french
Once again the word COULD RISE is used another scare story?
Love how the BBC put ‘Could’ before everything🤣 here one When The BBC get DEFUNDED, People will Be so much Happier because they have saved themselves £157.50 and for some familys they will be able to Feed there Kids
Yawn the same argument as 4 years ago, is this all you’ve got?
Could Maybe Opinion Somewhat Possibly Probably Yet definitive headline from the BBC, on their crusade to reverse brexit. This is fucking embarrassing
Costs have gone up since covid began on all household essentials more than anything.working in a supermarket im especially seeing a difference in the elderly customers baskets.
What! No thats project fear, cant be! Not in boris great future lol
So we will be paying more for the cheap crap they sell us
The words Sherlock, Shit and No spring to mind 🙄
Food prices will rise without help from Brexit or EU. It will be too wet or too dry to grow whatever we want to eat. Or there’s not enough farmland available to grow food on thanks to building projects. The price never goes back down after problems are dealt with.
Any news headline with the word 'could' in it isn't news 😒
Labour instigated scaremongering?
No sh1t Sherlock!!! Remainers have been telling you that for 4 years!!!
Brexit has a chance of working with a 'competent' 'honest' government & PM delivering it, with a robust plan ...no confidence in this government & PM to deliver it though
'At the end of the year we will be outside the single market...and intensive planning is underway to help ensure that businesses are ready to seize the opportunities that it will bring.' But the govt never articulates what those opportunities to business are. Why would that be?
BBCPolitics There’s no “could” about it. People who voted leave were cheated & lied to so that Cummings & his demented dancing bear Johnson could steal their votes. The question of whether we end the transition on the terms eventually agreed should be put to the public. BrexitBetrayal
Simple solution, buy British
More lies
It's what they voted for.
It would be funny to see the brexwits scrambling to blame this obvious consequence in everything but Brexit if we didn’t already have overloaded food banks and starving kids in the uk.
Could? More remoaner bollocks then.
For “could” read “will”
Could is not will.
This old chestnut from page 94 of the bullshit project fear bingo...I can't believe that any sector if the MSM thinks it can still put this sort of bollocks out and people fall for it.
Ah! One of those could/couldn't warnings, always helpful aren't they.
Here we go Project Fear starts again.
More BBC shite.
BBCPolitics I think it’s pretty clear by now that the majority of people who voted for Brexit didn’t really know what the consequences would be. Primarily because the promises that they were given were lies. What an absolute shambles! A few will be rich and laughing though, as ever!
Another fear story, therefore, you wish to stay in the EU you pay more for food to protect French farms as for clothes it is a lot cheaper
Fake news 🖕
Project Fear alive and well amongst the remainers. Got to give them credit for their stamina.
Oh the Remoaners are screaming again!!!!!!!!!!!!
.... ' could ' is well used in this report
Costs are already rising because of Covid. Brexit another excuse to raise costs.
BBCPolitics BREAKING: Remain supporters disagree with Brexit.
as nearly all the food products I buy dont come from EU countries I cant see how it will make any difference. Just checked all the fruit on my breakfast which either came from the UK or Brazil grapes South Africa tangerines and New Zealand kiwi fruits . Same with the vegetables.
Don’t care. We voted ahht. Get dem all ahht
BBCPolitics Yes. They could go down, or stay the same. Not quite as catchy as a headline.
BBCPolitics Hauliers are right. Prices will rise due to Brexit. In Jan we are not in peak EU growing season so supermarkets air freight from further afield but they cap % of produce annually imported this way bcos airfreight is up to 6x more expensive than road. By March we’ll see it.
Yes we know, that's literally what everyone has been saying for the past 5 years
BBCPolitics hauliers hold us to ransom. put it back on the rail. the worst thing we ever did destroying our rail system
BBCPolitics Starting the day with a scare - BBC, you lost 🤷🏻♂️ - BREXIT is happening. “Could” is one of the laziest forms of journalism, it just hides your opinion in a report you can now promote 🙄. You wonder why people lose faith...
BBCPolitics No no no we're supposed to be better off! Loads of money coming back from EU!! Or is it another Boris lie?
Remoaners and Scaremongering. It could be a new quiz show, like Pointless? Absolutely pointless. These people have had years to prepare for this. It only affects 18% of business, who solely trade with Europe. The remainder trade Globally. So why don’t you get over it.
BBCPolitics No shit Sherlock...
BBCPolitics Do you have any sort of sane perspective on anything? You mad buggers.
BBCPolitics Dwarfed by the cost of everyday goods rising because of inflation we’re going to see after bailouts for COVID measures
Just so everyone knows this means Hovis sliced bread will likely jump to £1.15 instead of 95p. Massive profit margin for manufacturers and resellers. Consumer not likely significant differences in weekly shopping. Stop acting like a SCARECROW BBC.
Stop panicking there will be a deal Dec Jan Feb it will happen
BBCPolitics There's that highly overworked word 'could' again. More meaningless rubbish used as propaganda. DefundTheBBC
BBCPolitics “Cost of everyday goods could rise” and the BBC takes great pleasure in reporting it,even although it is not certain.
The international press and pretty much the whole world knows brexit has been driven by emotional lies and the self interests of a powerful few, it’s built on rhetoric and slogan, no substance, it’s the people that will suffer, it’s a disaster
More scare stories a lot of produce is produced in UK.
BBCPolitics Clearly 10DowningStreet deal was NOT ovenready and PrimeMinister should step down from the lies told. Thanks to Dominic Cummings for ruining our country. BorisHasFailedTheNation
BBCPolitics Bloody hauliers.
'could'...
BBCPolitics If there’s the slimiest of opportunity, with or without a deal, to increase prices retailers will use it. These are businesses after all.
There's a surprise.
BBCPolitics The word here is “ could “ which is not actually “will” so in fact it’s meaningless. Typical BBC and the fearmongers.
Obviously..... but the brexiteers thought the were special and that the EU wast the problem. Fked over by the toryscum and their billionaire cronies
BBCPolitics Project fear
BBCPolitics Labour bans sale of non essential items in Wales,absolutely crazy. Imagine if Labour were in charge in England, frightening. Labour really are not be trusted with governing our lives at any level with their woke overbearing,dictatorial,unworkable and unaffordable policies.
BBCPolitics What’s this ‘could’ bollocks?
2020 journalism reporting could and maybe’s.
Could...
They have already i would an extra £50 on my original weekly shopping in the last few months.
The prices are already ridiculously high.
I 'could' win the lottery
Is that another 'COULD' ffs. More scaremongering
Prices in shops of basic foods has already started to rise due to both the pandemic and pressure of leaving the EU.
They rose during the pandemic anyway
Everything's going to riser anyway in wake of the pandemic. We're tough, we'll cope.
Also, apparently most 'checks' are now done via IT so custom checks should not increase. They will at the beginning because France will try to prove a point...!
Until we start producing more of our own food- people forget the EU basically pays us not to produce. And if we have a neutral food tariff it wouldn't go up anyway
Or could stay the same or be cheaper!
No surprise there. Didn’t the great British public realise this?
COULD 😡
The whole of the western world are printing money that has nothing to back it up. This causes prices to increase and inflation.
Could rise mans nothing but speculation! A bit of a pointless article! In other words no one knows for certain?!
Oh that word 'could' again.
Wow BBC still fighting Brexit with our money
Then they won't sell as much it ain't rocket science
The prices been going up all year!
Money grabbing, don’t worry lads we won’t buy stuff that has been hiked, you may loose business.
BBC really can’t help themselves. Hanging on to project fear, desperately trying to prove they were right. Impartial? Defund the BBC
Dear
It will go down actually. You can buy cheaper and better outside EU
Here we go bbc seriously have you nothing nice to scare people about it’s constant with you lot bore off
Anything is possible! Britain could prosper? Labour might stop anti Semitism? I might win the lottery? Future possibilities are infinite if you speculate positively!
And we’ve got another hour of this constant doom & gloom today great 🤦♀️
The media seem to forget there's a whole world to trade with. We're no longer tied to just this tiny white corner of the world. Most eu products can be sourced elsewhere, far more cheaply. EU protectionism has inflated prices for years.
Without the word 'could' BBCNews is stuffed.
Oh there will be no 'could' about it.!!! 🙄
They are going to rise anyway !!
Which is the irony for the North currently being cut off by Westminster. Remember that 66% of your salary we are paying because we cant cope with the pandemic, well the price rises will mean you only get to buy 80% of what you could afford as a result if a vote we lied over...
Could !
But hey they may not. But why not peddle the negative. It’s all you useless lot do defundthebbc
Well duh
BBC is a British disgrace
One problem at a time please. Try and find something good about Today, let's start worrying about Tomorrow when the population cones out if pandemic
I am French, live in the UK, took the ferry boat in Dover last summer in between two covid waves. You just have to watch the enormous number of unloading trucks in Dover to realise the size of the catastrophy that will unfold when they put customs checks in there
COULD!
Every thing will go up un price as a mixture of profiteering & to pay for these ridiculous continued lockdowns ...let the people live & work that want too, protect who we need to and not cower away hoping forbade vaccine & killing an economy
Nice boots.
Utter shock! Who knew!? 🤷🏻♂️🙄
Brought to you from the pages oh No shit Sherlock
I’ve discovered Al Jazeera news....good lord, there’s a world of news out there...no incessant Covid, no incessant Brexit, no incessant school meals!!
Michael Gove confirmed this months ago.
Will rise probably even with a deal
Cant just blame brexit or covid. due to inflation which occurs every single year, bbc you should know better you advertise it. food prices go up year on year train travel fuel will rise
I spent 35years in the haulage game, Take citrus fruit from South Africa today 30 seconds to clear customes this includes paying the 17% Tarrif imposed by the EU. All that will change is the Tarrif to 3% WTO or 0% if we apply the commonwealth trade deal
And in other news .... water is wet
Of course the prices will rise, the thick bastards that followed that clown Farage didn’t see that one coming.
Oh so the fear campaign has started again has it !! Pathetic.
What bollocks! Nothing to do with ‘deals’ it’s all the money printing make most of us poorer!
No shit, Sherlock...🙄
Why does the BBC in particular believe it is us who will suffer. I am personally aware of company's in the EU that are extremely concerned that their trade to the UK will be hit because of the attitude of their negotiators.
Do be quiet
Supermarket own brand goods have been disappearing off the shelves. Preparing us for Brexit?
BBC is all could, buts & maybe's........report the facts and not your opinions.
The cost of everyday goods has been rising annually
Awesome
Breaking news Brexit: as bbc’s desperation rises a lot of stories will contain the word ”could” bet then continue as if it’s a fact.
Not “could” but “will”.
C'mon everyone, when we look at the projections I think we all know there are going to be some price rises.
That’s under the assumption that food production doesn’t become disrupted due to COVID-19 lockdowns.
The BBC could be losing millions of pounds of EU funds after Brexit so will continue to push its anti British, anti democracy narrative until it is defunded.
they will with the shocking'deal' the blonde clown & his circus signed up to
Turkeys voted. Now enjoy the ride
“People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices.”
Erm, told you so?
Everyday goods could rise with a deal
Breaking news bbc prices are rising all the time. Shock !!
Prices rocketed when we joined the EU. CAP charges will cease to exist after December 31st, which should bring some food prices down - processed foods for instance. We will be setting our own duty rates, and many of them will be nil. Most of our imports are non EU.
When were ‘hauliers’ reclassified as ‘economists’ 🤔
Could? !!!! Will, tell everyone now!
Rising anyway
They’re already bloody going up!🤬😒
Ok, for MPS who have more money with pay rise.But we are struggling,because our energy bills will be more than last year,because been at home,instead of other places,using both their electricity and heating.
Or they could fall as the EU is sidelined and other countries take their place.
Prices have already started to rise because of the pandemic,many increases will hit the shops the end of the year and early next year also for imported goods.Perfect for BBC to blame Brexit and not the pandemic. Propaganda is alive & well as usual at the BBC.
No shit....
...and rise, and rise, and rise....
‘Could’
something something gammon
Conservatives will hide the cost of Brexit with COVID-19. The suckers will lap it up and it’ll be just another chapter of ‘we knew you’d say that’ for “Remainers”. It’s very tiresome, honestly.
But of course the transport hauliers are union which is attached to Labour and the BBC Is full of left wing Labour supporters so you’re going to get shit like this reported.
Scaremongering again...
Prices on imported goods may go up around 10% in line with WTO rules but naturally British goods should go down as unnecessary regulation is stripped from British law. This should create demand which in turn should create jobs. Its what I would call a win win.
VOTE BLUE.
Aha, today’s BBC paparazzi scaremongering story for today. I note we are back to the ‘COULD’ rhetorical of the remoaners. They still think they can stop UK from leaving. WRONG. WE ARE OUT. Now try being journalist again, instead of anti government anti British.
They already have, tell us something we don't know. Instead fighting every step of the way perhaps our media and industries could have backed our government and presented a united front, whether or not they agreed with it, we all need the best deal for the UK
They are going to anyway
Shut up BBC
Please help! Please retweet/share! 8-months-old baby Joshua is battling acute lymphocytic leukemia, a type of blood cancer. His life is dependent on chemotherapy & a stem cell transplant. Help Joshua's family in offsetting the cost of his treatment here:
Project Fear, etc...
Of course they will.
More EU scaremongering. The BBC has made somewhere in the region of 3,000 negative Brexit predictions so far and not a single one has proven accurate.
Worth it 👍😎
Even with a deal from 1Jan21 WTO red tape will apply. Customs formalities etc. Cost to British business excluding tariffs
Could? WILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Inflation will happen anyway because of the Covid measures. Blaming it on Brexit will be a complete bait and switch. Don't be fooled.
It’s what ppl voted for. Chaos. £ has crashed.
If only they had been warned.
But... but... that was remainer propaganda..?
No cant happen because the brexiters said it wouldn't. 🙃
Prices have been going up, year on year, whilst in the EU!! Shocking thing is, items have been getting smaller, more money for less basically, all while in the EU
Yawn boring now 😠
More BBC anti-brexit propaganda ..
Cost of anything 'could' rise with or without a deal at any time.
BBC =British brainwash Corporation
But but but....blue passports and bendy bananas 🙄
Yes, but we 'could die' even with a deal
Brexit or COVID there are other thing in the world to report rubbish bbc as par
Could rise? Nah, will rise. Every projection has said it will, from worst to best.
No shit, Sherlock!!
